Harsco began life last century by offering steelmakers a metal recovery service for slag, and expanded into other business areas to meet the growing need for recycling in the metals industry, and beyond. Today, our activities span across multiple industrial sectors, providing beneficiation to a wide range of waste materials.

Our resource recovery solutions help minimize the environmental impact of production and derive economic value to the producer. We process by-products and waste materials to recover valuable metal or mineral elements, and commercialize the Co-Products.

Best available process technology
We are not tied to any technology. Instead, we approach the waste issue from the perspective of the material being treated and possible end applications for the Co-Products after processing. Taking into account local market conditions and environmental regulations, we select a process to achieve the required performance using the best available technologies. These range across mechanical, hydro, thermal, or biological processes.
